Finally getting a new board after several years (six to be exact) and need help on making a proper choice. I'm 6'4 276lbs and wear 32s size 14. My retired board was a Nidecker Axis 163.
Conflicted by the following boards:
GNU Billy Goat 165
Lamar Hunter, Cranium, and Viper 163 wide
or should I go with the Rossignol Accelerator 165 wide.
I am a park and bombing-run rider who loves going fast and taking nice wide carves.
I'm not as much into the GNU, but my Nidecker was the same width and I never had issues with toe-drag. Usually I measure at the inserts since I don't ride at the waist. My stance angles are 17/ -15
I'm checking out the lib tech boards and I'm liking what I see, but I'm weighing out prices because 4-5 hundred is a little steep for me. That 180cm goes to my eye brows and would make a great power board.
In the same boat, I am looking to upgrade from a 15yo Ride Timeless... We both need/needed new boards!!!
